organization to better position the company for long-term sustainable
value."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains "non-GAAP financial measures" under the rules
of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. This non-GAAP information
supplements, and is not intended to represent a measure of performance in
accordance with, disclosures required by generally accepted accounting
principles, or GAAP. The reconciliation for net income and diluted earnings
per share for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007
are in the tables attached to this press release.
The company uses non-GAAP financial measures internally to manage its
business, for example, in establishing its annual operating budget, in
assessing segment operating performance and for measuring performance under
employee incentive compensation plans. Non-GAAP financial measures are used
by management in its operating and financial decision-making because
management believes these measures reflect the company's ongoing business
in a manner that allows meaningful period-to-period comparisons.
Accordingly, the company believes it is useful for investors and others to
review both GAAP and non-GAAP measures in order to (a) understand and
evaluate the company's current operating performance and future prospects
in the same manner as management does and (b) compare in a consistent
manner the company's current financial results with past financial results.
The primary limitations associated with the company's use of non-GAAP
financial measures are that these measures may not be directly comparable
to the amounts reported by other companies and they do not include all
items of income and expense that affect the company's operations. The
company's management compensates for these limitations by considering the
company's financial results as determined in accordance with GAAP and by
providing a detailed reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to
the most directly comparable GAAP measures in this press release.
